I think we need 12 trains for full services, with 2 spares, until we start getting another shipment of trains, which I think is still a few years away. The only option is to send in 1 train at a time, and have only 1 spare, assuming our trains are defective, which is a very good chance they are.

Why do you think there's a very good chance all our trains are defective? Weren't most of the frames built in Canada?

They were. in the very same plant that will be doing the rewelding on the TTC Streetcars
